This....practice.....was ......hard. When we started we didn't stop. No water breaks or anything. I guess that's good but man i was so thirsty after practice. I need to learn to keep my chest up when skating low, and endurance really needs work, as usual. It's getting better but the pace, sprint, pace , sprint stuff really kills me. I love it though.
